632.04 ABATEMENT BY CITY.
   Should the nuisance not be abated at the expiration of time stated in the notice or such additional time as the Safety-Service Director or the Hearing Board provided for in Section 632.03 may grant, the Director shall have the right to enter upon the premises and abate the nuisance found thereon. This remedy shall be in addition to the penalty provided in Section 632.05. In abating such nuisance he may go to whatever extent may be necessary to complete the abatement of the same and should it be practicable to sell or salvage any material derived in such abatement, he may sell the same at a private or public sale at the best price obtainable and shall keep an account of the proceeds thereof. Such proceeds, if any, shall be deposited in the General Fund of the City and any difference between the amount so received and the cost of the abatement shall be levied as an assessment against the aforesaid property by Council, certified to the County Auditor and collected as any other assessment by the City. Should the proceeds of the sale of such salvaged material exceed the cost of such abatement, the surplus shall be paid to the owner of the premises from which such nuisance was abated when his proper claim therefor is established. In abating such nuisance the Director may call upon the Service-Safety Department or Health Department of the City for whatever assistance may be necessary, or may by private contract obtain the abatement thereof, if such private contract may be let without any expense whatever to the City.
